On Heroes and Tombs is the story of Alejandra, the beautiful daugter of a prominent Argentine family, and the three men whose lives are tragically entwined with hers. There is her father, Fernando Vidal, obsessed with the blind, with evil, and most of all with Alejandra. There is Martin, her young lover, whose only redemption is his decision to let go of his love. And there is Bruno, philosopher, writer, friend of Alejandra's family, who must face his love for the mother through his relationship with the daughter. Set against the background of the turbulent Argentine social and political upheaval of the 1950s, this is a masterwork by one of the most imaginative and original talents of the 20th century.
